                  FOXMEYER HEALTH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               DECEMBER 31, 1994
                                  (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FoxMeyer Health
Corporation (formerly National Intergroup, Inc.) and its subsidiaries (the
"Corporation"), including FoxMeyer Corporation ("FoxMeyer"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary, and Ben Franklin Retail Stores, Inc.  ("Ben Franklin"), a
67.7%-owned subsidiary.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated.

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Corporation as of
December 31, 1994, the condensed consolidated statements of income for the
three and nine months ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 and the condensed
consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended December 31,
1994 and 1993 are unaudited.  In the opinion of management, these statements
have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial
statements and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of
financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  Such adjustments
were of a normal recurring nature.  The results of operations for the three and
nine months ended December 31, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the entire year.  The condensed consolidated
balance sheet as of March 31, 1994 was derived from audited financial
statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting principles.  Additional information is contained in the
Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1994, which should be read in
conjunction with this quarterly report.

NOTE 2 - NET INCOME PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK

Net income per share of common stock is based on net income after preferred
stock dividend requirements and the weighted average number of shares of common
stock outstanding during the period after giving effect to stock options
considered to be dilutive common stock equivalents.  Fully diluted net income
per share is not presented as it is substantially the same as primary earnings
per share.

NOTE 3 - ACQUISITION OF FOXMEYER'S MINORITY INTEREST

On October 12, 1994, the Corporation acquired, by way of merger of FoxMeyer
with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, all of the
outstanding shares of FoxMeyer that it did not previously own in exchange for
approximately 4,981,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock.  These shares
were issued from treasury stock held by the Corporation.  As a result of this
transaction, FoxMeyer became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation.  All
FoxMeyer stock options outstanding at the time of the merger, which were
exercisable for an aggregate of 1.2 million shares of FoxMeyer common stock,
were converted, under the terms of the merger, to 1.1 million options to
acquire the Corporation's common stock at prices ranging from $10.85 to $16.39
per share.

The merger transaction was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting.
The purchase price was allocated to the 19.5% of FoxMeyer acquired based on the
fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  The difference in
the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the market
value of the shares of common stock issued resulted in a $15.9 million
reduction in goodwill recorded on the original acquisition of FoxMeyer by the
Corporation in 1986.  The reduction in goodwill will be amortized over the
remaining life of the original goodwill.  The fair value of the assets acquired
and liabilities assumed is subject to change based on evidence of fair value
still to be obtained.  The difference of approximately $10.2 million between
the fair value of the treasury shares issued ($80.0 million) and the average
cost of those shares was charged to retained earnings.

Unaudited pro forma results of operations for the nine months ended December
31, 1994 and 1993, had the acquisition of FoxMeyer's minority interest taken
place at the beginning of the corresponding fiscal years, are as follows (in
thousands of dollars):

The foregoing unaudited pro forma results of operations reflect the estimated
impact of the valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the
19.5% of FoxMeyer common stock acquired on October 12, 1994 as if the purchase
had taken place at the beginning of the 1995 and 1994 fiscal years,
respectively.  The additional shares of common stock of the Corporation issued
in the acquisition were assumed to be outstanding for the entire periods
presented.  These results are not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations that would have occurred had the acquisition of FoxMeyer's 19.5%
minority interest actually taken place at the beginning of the fiscal year
presented, nor are these results of operations indicative of the future results
of operations of the Corporation.

NOTE 4 - INVESTMENTS

The Corporation's investments in marketable equity securities, included in
"Other current assets", are classified as "available for sale".  The carrying

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

For the nine months ended December 31, 1994, the change in net unrealized
holding gains (losses) was a $7.0 million gain.  Proceeds of $18.9 million were
received during the nine months ended December 31, 1994 from the sale of
marketable equity securities resulting in gross realized gains of $1.3 million
and gross realized losses of $0.4 million.  The cost of securities sold was
determined using the average cost method.

NOTE 5 - LONG-TERM DEBT

During the quarter ended December 31, 1994, Ben Franklin entered into a new
revolving credit facility (the "Ben Franklin Facility") which expires in August
1996.  The Ben Franklin Facility provides for a two-tier borrowing base of $15
million for the first six months of the calendar year and $25 million for the
remainder of the year.  The Ben Franklin Facility is secured and bears interest
at the prime rate.  Additional covenants prohibit, among other things, the
payment of dividends and require Ben Franklin to maintain certain financial
ratios.





                                       6
<PAGE>   8
On November 22, 1994, FoxMeyer entered into an amendment to FoxMeyer's
revolving credit facility (the "FoxMeyer Credit Facility"), which raised the
aggregate commitment under the FoxMeyer Credit Facility to $275 million from
$210 million.  The covenants under the FoxMeyer Credit Facility were not
materially changed as a result of the amendment.  The FoxMeyer Credit Facility
provides for interest rates based on (i) a Eurodollar rate (as defined) plus a
variable fee that cannot exceed 1%, (ii) the prime rate or (iii) rates offered
by banks that are parties to the FoxMeyer Credit Facility.  The maturity date
was extended to December 31, 1997.

On December 19, 1994, the Corporation amended its $15 million revolving credit
facility (the "Credit Facility") to allow for the repurchase of additional
shares of the Corporation's common stock.  In addition, the collateral required
on the Credit Facility was raised to 4.0 million shares of FoxMeyer's common
stock on October 12, 1994.

NOTE 6 - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FINANCING

On October 27, 1994, FoxMeyer amended its accounts receivable financing program
(the "Program") to extend the termination date of the Program to November 21,
1995 and to increase the participation interest in a defined pool of FoxMeyer's
trade receivables from $125 million to $200 million.  Other terms of the
agreement were not significantly changed.  The additional $75 million of
proceeds received on execution of the amendment were used to reduce amounts
outstanding under the FoxMeyer Credit Facility.

NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Corporation has retained responsibility for certain potential environmental
liabilities attributable to former operating units and as a result is subject
to federal, state or local environmental laws, rules and regulations.  The laws
generally impose joint and several liability on present and former owners and
operators, transporters and generators for remediation of contaminated
properties regardless of fault.  The Corporation and its subsidiaries have
received various claims and demands from governmental agencies relating to
investigations and remedial actions to address environmental clean-up costs and
in some instances have been designated as a potentially responsible party by
the Environmental Protection Agency.

The Corporation's reserves for potential environmental assessments or
remediation activities, penalties or fines that may be imposed for non-
compliance with such laws or regulations have not changed materially since
March 31, 1994.  The Corporation's estimates of these costs are based on
currently available facts, existing technologies, presently enacted laws and
regulations and the professional judgment of consultants and counsel.

The amounts of these liabilities are difficult to estimate due to such factors
as the unknown extent of remedial actions that may be required and, in cases of
sites not owned by the Corporation, the unknown extent of the Corporation's
probable liability in proportion to the probable liability of other parties.
Moreover, the Corporation may have environmental liabilities that the
Corporation cannot in its judgment estimate at this time and losses
attributable to remediation costs may arise at other sites.  The Corporation
cannot now estimate the additional cost and expenses it may incur for such
environmental liabilities.  While management of the Corporation does not
believe the liabilities associated with such other sites will have a material
adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations, it
recognizes additional work may have to be performed to ascertain the ultimate
liability for such sites.


                                       7
<PAGE>   9
There are various other pending claims and lawsuits arising out of the normal
conduct of the Corporation's businesses.  In the opinion of management, the
ultimate outcome of these claims and lawsuits will not have a material effect
on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of the
Corporation.

The Corporation continues to monitor the Phar-Mor, Inc. ("Phar-Mor") bankruptcy
proceedings closely and to work with Phar-Mor through the Unsecured Creditor's
Committee as Phar-Mor attempts to reorganize and emerge from bankruptcy.  The
Corporation believes the $40.0 million allowance for possible loss it recorded
in December 1992 remains a reasonable estimate of its probable loss; however,
there may be future developments, and additional information may become
available, that indicate that the estimated loss should be adjusted.  The
Corporation believes that future adjustments to the allowance recorded to date,
if any, would not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial
condition.  However, should such adjustments be necessary, the amounts could be
material to the results of operations for the period or periods in which they
are reported.

NOTE 9 - ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS

As of April 1, 1994, FoxMeyer acquired all of the outstanding stock of Scrip
Card Enterprises, Inc. ("Scrip Card") for $10.0 million. Based on Scrip Card
obtaining certain revenue targets during each of the three years ending March
31, 1997, an additional $6.0 million may be paid to the former stockholders of
Scrip Card.  Scrip Card performs prescription benefit management services for
small to medium-sized businesses.  The transaction was accounted for by the
purchase method of accounting.  The purchase price has been allocated to the
assets and liabilities of Scrip Card in amounts equal to their fair market
values.  Approximately $8.1 million of the purchase price was assigned to the
customer lists acquired in the transaction.  The allocation of the purchase
price is subject to change based on evidence of fair value still to be
obtained.  The results of operations of Scrip Card have been included in the
consolidated financial statements of the Corporation since its acquisition.

On June 28, 1994, FoxMeyer completed an amalgamation of a wholly-owned
subsidiary with Evans Health Group Limited ("Evans").  As a result of the
amalgamation and the simultaneous exercise of options for 2,000,000 shares of
Evans' common stock, which options FoxMeyer had previously acquired, FoxMeyer's
ownership interest in the amalgamated corporation, FoxMeyer Canada Inc.
("FoxMeyer Canada"), is 46.0%.  FoxMeyer Canada provides health care and
pharmacy services in Canada.  FoxMeyer's investment in FoxMeyer Canada at
December 31, 1994 was $2.2 million and was accounted for under the equity
method of accounting.  FoxMeyer has options to acquire up to 8,000,000
additional shares of common stock of FoxMeyer Canada at prices ranging from (in
Canadian dollars) $1.50 to $3.00.

In October 1994, FoxMeyer acquired US Health Data Interchange, Inc. ("USHDI")
for $0.3 million.  USHDI provides products and services linking medical
providers to payers nationwide, including practice management software and
services, electronic claims submission, on-line verification of eligibility and
benefits, and other electronic data interchange-related services.  FoxMeyer
subsequently formed HealthConnect, a new subsidiary to provide prescription
benefit management services, data support, linkages and information management
services to health professionals throughout the United States.  HealthConnect
is composed of the following FoxMeyer subsidiaries:  USHDI, Health Care
Pharmacy Providers, Inc. and Scrip Card.

No pro forma combined results of operations of the Corporation and Scrip Card,
Fox Canada and USHDI have been presented as such amounts are not materially
different from those previously reported.

                  FOXMEYER HEALTH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

FoxMeyer Health Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Corporation") reported
net income of $14.7 million and $26.6 million for the three months and nine
months ended December 31, 1994, respectively.  This represents an increase of
approximately $7.1 million and $13.6 million for the three and nine months
ended December 31, 1994, respectively, over the same periods of the prior
fiscal year.  Net income per share was $0.60 and $0.87 per share for the three
and nine months ended December 31, 1994, respectively, as compared to $0.28 and
$0.40 per share for the three and nine months ended December 31, 1993,
respectively.  Amounts applicable to common stockholders were significantly
affected by the Corporation's November 1993 exchange offer whereby
approximately 6.8 million shares of the Corporation's common stock were
exchanged for 3.4 million shares of a new series of preferred stock.  As a
result, preferred stock dividends increased from $5.7 million to $14.2 million
for the nine months ended December 31, 1993 and 1994, respectively.

Significant transactions occurring during the nine months ended December 31,
1994 include:

     In April 1994, FoxMeyer Corporation ("FoxMeyer") acquired Scrip Card
     Enterprises, Inc. ("Scrip Card"), a Utah company engaged in prescription
     benefit management services to small and medium-sized businesses.  Scrip
     Card was acquired for the purpose of expanding and enhancing FoxMeyer's
     present prescription benefit management programs.

     In June 1994, FoxMeyer entered the Canadian health care market through an
     amalgamation of a wholly-owned subsidiary with Evans Health Group Limited.
     Subsequent to the amalgamation, FoxMeyer's ownership interest in the
     amalgamated corporation, FoxMeyer Canada Inc.  ("FoxMeyer Canada"), is
     46.0%.  FoxMeyer Canada provides health care, pharmacy and benefit
     management services in Canada.

     In July 1994, FoxMeyer announced that it had signed an agreement with the
     University Hospital Consortium ("UHC") for an initial three-year term with
     UHC having two one-year renewal options.  UHC represents an alliance of 67
     academic medical centers.  When the contract becomes fully effective in
     February 1995, FoxMeyer will serve as the primary supplier to UHC members
     that participate in UHC's pharmacy purchasing program.  FoxMeyer's
     management anticipates that the UHC contract will generate $750 million to
     $800 million in additional prescription drug sales in the first full year
     of the contract.  FoxMeyer has opened seven new warehouses in California,
     Arizona, Utah, Washington, Tennessee, and New Jersey to service the UHC
     contract.

     On October 12, 1994, FoxMeyer merged with and into a wholly-owned
     subsidiary of the Corporation pursuant to which the stockholders of
     FoxMeyer, other than the Corporation, received 0.904 shares of the common
     stock of the Corporation for each share of FoxMeyer's common stock in a
     tax-free reorganization.

     In October 1994, FoxMeyer acquired US Health Data Interchange, Inc.
     ("USHDI").  USHDI provides products and services linking medical providers
     to payers nationwide, including practice management software and services,
     electronic claims submission, on-line verification of eligibility and
     benefits, and other electronic data interchange-related services.
     FoxMeyer subsequently formed HealthConnect, a new subsidiary to provide
     prescription benefit management services, data support, linkages and
     information management services to health professionals throughout the
     United States.  HealthConnect is composed of the following FoxMeyer
     subsidiaries:  USHDI, Health Care Pharmacy Providers, Inc. and Scrip Card.

     Ben Franklin Retail Stores, Inc. ("Ben Franklin") entered into franchise
     agreements with Crafts Plus +, Inc. ("Crafts Plus"), a chain of
     approximately 45 crafts stores, on November 9, 1994.  Crafts Plus is
     headquartered in San Antonio, Texas and has stores in Texas, Louisiana,
     Missouri, Alabama and New Mexico.  The stores currently operate primarily
     under the Crafts, Etc. name and will be converted to Ben Franklin crafts
     stores within 12 months.  Ben Franklin entered into a purchase requirement
     agreement that requires that Crafts Plus purchase at least 75% of its
     merchandise from Ben Franklin at prevailing prices.  In addition, Ben
     Franklin will receive royalty payments from these stores.  Also, on
     November 9, 1994, Ben Franklin loaned Crafts Plus $4.9 million under an
     unsecured, subordinated note which is convertible into 49% of Crafts Plus'
     common stock at the option of Ben Franklin.  The note bears interest at
     prime plus 2%, has a maturity date of December 31, 1999 and contains
     certain financial covenants.




                                       9

     In January 1995, Ben Franklin announced the signing of an agreement with
     Cotter & Company in which Ben Franklin would offer to supply a majority of
     Cotter & Company's variety wholesale customers, including 800 V&S variety
     stores.  Ben Franklin will purchase up to $8.6 million of selected variety
     merchandise and related goods from Cotter & Company.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 COMPARED TO
THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993

Net sales decreased $90.6 million to $1,306.1 million for the three months
ended December 31, 1994, as compared to $1,396.7 million for the three months
ended December 31, 1993.  Net sales decreased across all of FoxMeyer's customer
segments with the exception of Hospitals and Alternate Care.  The sales decline
at FoxMeyer was due primarily to (i) intense competition among pharmaceutical
distributors for new customers, (ii) a decrease in sales to Phar-Mor, Inc.
("Phar-Mor") as a result of continuing store closures, and (iii) FoxMeyer's
decision in some cases not to lower prices to keep certain accounts.  Ben
Franklin's net sales were up slightly over the same period in the prior year
primarily from the increase from 10 to 28 in the number of company-owned crafts
superstores opened.

Gross profit increased $3.2 million to $89.7 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1994 as compared to the same period in the prior year.  As a
percentage of sales, gross margin increased from 6.2% to 6.9% of net sales for
the three months ended December 31, 1993 and 1994, respectively.  The increase
was principally due to higher margins on Ben Franklin's wholesale sales, higher
margins associated with increased sales at Ben Franklin's company-owned stores
and the expansion of FoxMeyer's managed care business under HealthConnect which
is a higher margin business.  FoxMeyer's gross margin for warehouse sales
increased slightly in the current period as compared to the prior year.  Price
competition in FoxMeyer's industry and the decline in inventory investment
buying opportunities continue to exert pressure on gross margin.  To offset
these pressures, FoxMeyer has undertaken to increase gross margin by providing
value-added services, emphasizing private label and generic products,
increasing sales of higher margin product lines and expanding higher margin
businesses such as managed care activities.

Operating expenses decreased $5.7 million to $73.0 million for the three months
ended December 31, 1994 as compared to $78.7 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1993.  FoxMeyer accounted for $4.5 million of the decline.  This
decrease is the result of FoxMeyer's cost containment and cost reduction
programs as well as the effect of lower sales volume.  The effect of these
programs was partially offset by additional expenses that were incurred in
connection with the expansion of managed care businesses, development of
certain software products and realignment of distribution centers.  Ben
Franklin's operating expenses decreased $1.2 million.  Without the effect of a
$5.3 million restructuring charge recorded in the prior year, operating
expenses for Ben Franklin would have increased $4.1 million primarily as a
result of the increase in the number of company-owned crafts superstores.

Other income increased $0.1 million to $4.4 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1994 as compared to the same period in the prior year.  In
addition to recurring items, principally fees collected on past-due receivables
and costs related to the accounts receivable financing program, other income
also includes certain transactions not common to both periods.  For the three
months ended December 31, 1993, the Corporation recognized a gain on the
termination of certain operating leases.  In the current year,  the Corporation
recognized income from a contingent fee arising from a fiscal 1990 asset sale,
gains on the sale of certain short-term investments, and a loss on the
write-off of obsolete software. In addition, the cost of the accounts
receivable financing program rose $1.5 million to $2.4 million for the current
year principally as a result of an increase in the average amount of
receivables sold from approximately $83 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1993 to $175 million for the three months ended December 31, 1994.
The Corporation may receive additional contingent fees in each of the next five
years principally dependent on aluminum prices.  No contingent fees were
received in fiscal 1994.

Net financing costs increased $0.3 million to $6.5 million for the three months
ended December 31, 1994, as compared to $6.2 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1993.  Interest income increased $0.5 million principally as a
result of the income on notes receivable held by real estate limited
partnerships.  Interest expense increased $0.8 million.  Average debt for the
quarter increased by approximately $13.8 million over the three months ended
December 31, 1993 primarily as a result of increased borrowing by Ben Franklin
and debt incurred by the Corporation's real estate limited partnerships.  On
average, the Corporation's cost of debt increased 90 basis points as compared
to the three months ended December 31, 1993 reflecting the overall increase in
rates since December 1993 on the revolving debt of the Corporation and its
subsidiaries.




                                      10
<PAGE>   12
The net preferred income for National Steel Corporation ("NSC") was $1.4
million for the three months ended December 31, 1994, compared to $1.1 million
for the prior year period.  The $0.3 million increase primarily results from
lower expenses related to the Weirton liabilities.

The income tax provision for the third quarter of fiscal 1995 was $1.1 million
as compared to a benefit of $1.0 million for the three months ended December
31, 1993.  The provision (benefit) for both periods was based on estimates of
the full year effective tax rate.  The income tax provision (benefit) reflects
the income taxes related to Ben Franklin which cannot be consolidated in the
Corporation's federal income tax return.  The low effective tax rate for the
current quarter and the benefit for the prior year were also the result of the
reduction in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

The minority interest in the net income of consolidated subsidiaries was $0.2
million for the three months ended December 31, 1994, compared to $0.5 million
for the three months ended December 31, 1993.  The decrease was attributable to
the elimination of the minority interest in FoxMeyer resulting from the merger
transaction in October 1994 partially offset by the increase in net income of
Ben Franklin and the Corporation's real estate limited partnerships.

Preferred stock dividends were $4.7 million for the three months ended December
31, 1994, compared to $3.2 million for the three months ended December 31,
1993.  In November 1993, the Corporation exchanged approximately 6.8 million
shares of common stock for 3.4 million shares of a new series of preferred
stock.  The additional dividends represent the dividends declared on the new
series of preferred stock and the accretion of discount recorded on this series
of preferred stock.

NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 COMPARED TO
NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993

Net sales decreased $241.0 million to $3,813.5 million for the nine months
ended December 31, 1994, as compared to $4,054.5 million for the nine months
ended December 31, 1993.  Net sales decreased across all of FoxMeyer's customer
segments with the exception of Hospitals and Alternate Care.  The sales decline
at FoxMeyer was due primarily to (i) intense competition among pharmaceutical   
distributors for new customers, (ii) a decrease in sales to Phar-Mor as a
result of continuing store closures, and (iii) FoxMeyer's decision in some
cases not to lower prices to keep certain accounts.  Ben Franklin's net sales
were up slightly over the same period in the prior year primarily from the
increase from 10 to 28 in the number of company-owned crafts superstores
opened.

Gross profit increased $3.1 million to $257.0 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 1994 as compared to the same period in the prior year.  As a
percentage of sales, gross margin increased from 6.3% to 6.7% of net sales for
the nine months ended December 31, 1993 and 1994, respectively.  The increase
was principally due to higher margins on Ben Franklin's wholesale sales, the
effect of higher margins associated with increased sales at Ben Franklin's
company-owned stores and the expansion of FoxMeyer's managed care business
under HealthConnect which is a higher margin business.  FoxMeyer's gross margin
for warehouse sales remained at the same level as compared to the prior year.
Price competition in FoxMeyer's industry and the decline in inventory
investment buying opportunities continue to exert pressure on gross margin.  To
offset these pressures, FoxMeyer has undertaken  to increase gross margin by
providing value-added services, emphasizing private label and generic products,
increasing sales of higher margin product lines and expanding higher margin
businesses such as managed care activities.

Operating expenses decreased $10.8 million to $217.1 million for the nine
months ended December 31, 1994 as compared to $227.9 million for the nine
months ended December 31, 1993.  FoxMeyer accounted for $10.9 million of the
decrease.  This decrease is the result of FoxMeyer's cost containment and cost
reduction programs as well as the effect of lower sales volume.  The impact of
these programs was partially offset by additional expenses that were incurred
for the expansion of managed care businesses, the continued development of
customer software products and realignment of distribution centers.  Ben
Franklin's operating expenses increased $0.9 million.  Without the effect of a
$5.3 million restructuring charge recorded in the prior year, operating
expenses for Ben Franklin would have increased $6.2 million primarily as a
result of the increase in the number of company-owned crafts superstores.

Other income decreased $0.4 million to $6.3 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 1994 as compared to the same period in the prior year.  In
addition to recurring items, principally fees collected on past-due receivables
and costs related to the accounts receivable financing program, other income
also includes certain transactions not common to both periods.  For the nine
months ended December 31, 1993, the Corporation recognized a gain on the
termination of certain operating leases.  In the current year, the Corporation
recognized income from a contingent fee arising from a fiscal 1990 asset sale,
gains on the sale of certain short-term investments, gains on the sale of
properties and other transactions



                                      11

completed by the Corporation's real estate limited partnerships and a loss on
the write-off of certain obsolete software. In addition, the cost of the
accounts receivable financing program rose $4.9 million to $5.8 million for the
current year as a result of the increase in the period of time the accounts
receivable financing program has been in effect and from an increase in the
program from $125 million to $200 million in November 1994.

Net financing costs decreased $1.1 million to $17.0 million for the nine months
ended December 31, 1994, as compared to $18.1 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 1993.  Interest income increased $2.4 million primarily as a
result of the income on notes receivable held by real estate limited
partnerships.  Interest expense increased $1.3 million.  Average debt for the
nine months ended December 31, 1994 increased approximately $7.1 million over
the nine months ended December 31, 1993 primarily due to increased borrowing by
Ben Franklin and debt incurred by the Corporation's real estate limited
partnerships.  On average, the Corporation's cost of debt increased 60 basis
points as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 1993 reflecting the
overall increase in rates since December 31, 1993 on the revolving debt of the
Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Results attributable to the NSC investment were $4.1 million for the nine
months ended December 31, 1994, compared to a loss of $0.3 million for the
prior year period.  The increase is principally the result of a $6.8 million
unrealized loss recorded in the second quarter of the prior year on the
Corporation's investment in NSC common stock.  Offsetting this decrease was a
$2.4 million gain recognized in May 1993 on the redemption of 10,000 shares of
NSC preferred stock owned by the Corporation.

The income tax provision for the nine months ended December 31, 1994 was $2.6
million as compared to a benefit of $1.6 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 1993.  The provision (benefit) for both periods was based on
estimates of the full year effective tax rate.  The income tax provision
(benefit) reflects the income taxes related to Ben Franklin which cannot be
consolidated in the Corporation's federal income tax return.  The low effective
tax rate for the current period and the benefit for the prior year were also
the result of the reduction in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

The minority interest in the net income of consolidated subsidiaries was $4.1
million for the nine months ended December 31, 1994, as compared to $2.9
million for the nine months ended December 31, 1993.  The increase was
attributable to the increase in net income of Ben Franklin, the Corporation's
real estate limited partnerships and FoxMeyer prior to the acquisition of
FoxMeyer's minority interest in October 1994.

Preferred stock dividends were $14.2 million for the nine months ended December
31, 1994, compared to $5.7 million  for the nine months ended December 31,
1993.  In November 1993, the Corporation exchanged approximately 6.8 million
shares of common stock for 3.4 million shares of a new series of preferred
stock.  The additional dividends represent the dividends declared on the new
series of preferred stock and the accretion of discount recorded on this series
of preferred stock.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash provided by operations (which includes working capital components) was
$13.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1994.  The change in
working capital components used $102.2 million of funds.  Operations and the
sale of $75 million of receivables provided $115.4 million of funds.  The
increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $206.5 million
primarily related to the funding of the increase in inventories.

Cash used in investing activities was $64.0 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 1994.  Approximately $40.8 million of funds were used to purchase
property and equipment during this period.  The Corporation intends to spend an
additional $12.0 million during the remainder of the fiscal year on the
purchase of property and equipment.  An additional $10.9 million was used to
acquire Scrip Card and other acquisitions, net of cash acquired.  The
Corporation made other investments in real estate and marketable securities
which used approximately $13.0 million of funds, net of proceeds from the sale
of investments, during the nine months ended December 31, 1994.

Financing activities provided $69.2 million of funds for the nine months ended
December 31, 1994.  The proceeds from issuance of long-term debt and other debt
repayments were primarily related to the Corporation's real estate operations.
Net borrowings under the Corporation's various credit facilities increased by
$87.4 million during this period.  Approximately $17.0 million was used to
purchase shares of the Corporation's common stock.



                                      12

Management assesses the Corporation's liquidity based on its major business
segments:  FoxMeyer, Ben Franklin, and certain holding company, corporate
office and other miscellaneous activities (collectively, the "Holding Company")
which includes  the Corporation's real estate limited partnership activities.
Each of the business segments must, for the most part, fund its own operations
and capital needs.  FoxMeyer's debt agreements allow, among other things,
payments to the Holding Company under a tax sharing agreement between the
Holding Company and FoxMeyer and for dividend payments to the Holding Company
subject to certain limitations.  Under the most restrictive of the limitations,
approximately $21.4 million was available as of December 31, 1994 from which
future dividends may be paid to the Holding Company by FoxMeyer.  Ben Franklin
may not pay any dividends to the Holding Company under its debt agreements.
Both Ben Franklin's and FoxMeyer's debt agreements also restrict intercompany
loans or other asset transfers with the Corporation.

FoxMeyer

As of December 31, 1994, FoxMeyer had borrowed $122.5 million under its $275.0
million revolving credit facility (the "FoxMeyer Facility").  The average and
maximum amounts borrowed during the nine months ended December 31, 1994 under
FoxMeyer's revolving credit facilities were $57.4 million and $178.6 million,
respectively.  On October 27, 1994, FoxMeyer amended its accounts receivable
financing program (the"Program") to extend the termination of the Program to
November 21, 1995 and to increase the participation interest in a defined pool
of FoxMeyer's trade receivables from $125 million to $200 million.  The
additional $75 million of proceeds received from the sale of trade receivables
were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the FoxMeyer Facility.

FoxMeyer expects that cash flow from operations and continued maintenance of
its working capital facilities will provide adequate cash to fund seasonal
increases in inventories and receivables.  As a result of the UHC contract and
the additional seven warehouses that will be opened to service that business,
as well as continuing investments in managed care businesses, it may be
necessary for FoxMeyer to expand existing lines of credit or seek alternative
financing.  FoxMeyer believes that, if required, alternative financing can be
obtained at reasonable rates.

Ben Franklin

As of December 31, 1994, Ben Franklin had borrowed $8.4 million under the $25
million currently available under its revolving credit facility (the "Ben
Franklin Facility").  The average and maximum amounts borrowed under the Ben
Franklin Facility during the nine months ended December 31, 1994 were $9.5
million and $24.0 million, respectively.

The Ben Franklin Facility has a two-tier revolving line of credit of $15
million for the first half of the calendar year and $25 million for the
remainder of the year.  The Ben Franklin Facility expires on August 1, 1996.
The borrowings bear interest at the prime rate and are secured by Ben
Franklin's wholesale inventory and accounts receivable.  The Ben Franklin
Facility prohibits the payment of dividends, contains a number of covenants and
conditions and requires Ben Franklin to maintain certain financial ratios.

Ben Franklin's management believes that cash on hand, cash generated by
operations, borrowings under its revolving credit facility, credit from its
vendors and customer financing programs will be sufficient to fund normal
working capital needs and to fund expected capital expenditures of $2.4 million
during the remainder of the fiscal year.  Ben Franklin may also use these
sources of funds to repurchase up to 1.1 million shares of Ben Franklin's
common stock under a plan announced October 5, 1994.  As a result of the
acquisition of business from Crafts Plus and Cotter & Company as discussed
above, Ben Franklin may need to seek additional financing to fund increases in
working capital.  Ben Franklin believes that, if necessary, additional
financing can be obtained at reasonable rates.

During fiscal 1994, Ben Franklin established a $5.3 million reserve for
restructuring its wholesale distribution operations.  Approximately $0.8
million represented a non-cash write down of variety store inventories and
another $0.8 million was spent during fiscal 1994 for workforce reduction and
relocation costs.  During the nine months ended December 31, 1994, an
additional $1.3 million was expended on workforce reduction and relocation
costs.  All workforce reductions have now been completed resulting in the
termination of 27 employees.  The remaining balance of $2.4 million is for
expenditures to complete warehouse relocations.  These expenditures are
expected to continue into the next fiscal year.



                                      13
<PAGE>   15
Holding Company

At December 31, 1994, the Holding Company had unrestricted cash and short-term
investments of approximately $5.0 million.  In addition, the Holding Company
had $3.8 million available under a revolving credit facility (the "Credit
Facility").  The Holding Company's cash requirements include the funding of
monthly operating expenses, lease commitments, benefit obligations, dividend
payments on the Corporation's redeemable preferred stock and mandatory sinking
fund payments thereon, and cash outlays attributable to environmental
liabilities of previously owned businesses, the amounts and timing of which are
uncertain.

In addition to the Credit Facility, the Corporation has a $30.0 million loan
from FoxMeyer.  Both of these financing arrangements are secured by shares of
the common stock of FoxMeyer and restrict the payment of cash dividends on the
Corporation's common stock and on its Series A preferred stock.  The average
and maximum amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility during the nine months
ended December 31, 1994 were $4.8 million and $14.2 million, respectively.

The Holding Company will rely on cash on hand, dividends received on shares of
FoxMeyer common stock, payments from FoxMeyer under its tax sharing agreement
and funds available under the Credit Facility to meet the cash funding
obligations described above.  The Corporation may also receive additional
contingent fees arising from a fiscal 1990 asset sale in each of the next five
years principally dependent on aluminum prices.  The Holding Company may also
use these sources of funds and proceeds from sale of investments to fund its
purchase of the Corporation's common stock under previously announced common
stock buy-back programs including a new program to purchase up to 1 million
shares that was announced in January 1995.

Other Matters

The Corporation continues to monitor the Phar-Mor bankruptcy proceedings
closely.  The Corporation believes the $40 million allowance for possible loss
recorded in December 1992 remains a reasonable estimate of its probable loss.
The Corporation believes any future adjustments to this amount, if they should
be necessary, may be material to the results of operations for the period or 
periods in which they are reported, but the adjustments, if any, would not have 
a material effect on the Corporation's financial condition.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         With respect to the matters reported in the Corporation's Annual
         Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1994, as
         supplemented by the Corporation's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for
         the quarters ended June 30, 1994 and September 30, 1994, respectively,
         the following additional information is provided:

         National Steel Corporation

         National Steel Corporation ("NSC"), Earth Sciences, Inc. ("ESI") and
         Southwire Company ("Southwire") were the original general partners in
         the Alumet Partnership ("Alumet").  In 1983, NSC assigned its
         partnership interest in Alumet to the Corporation.  The Environmental
         Protection Agency (the "EPA") issued a Special Notice Letter on May
         11, 1994 to Alumet alleging that Alumet is a potentially responsible
         party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and
         Liability Act ("CERCLA") for cleanup of the Lowry Landfill Superfund
         Site and demanding payment of the EPA's past and future response
         costs.  Alumet has responded to the Special Notice Letter, denying
         liability but offering to meet with the EPA for the purpose of
         discussing its participation in either the performance of the
         remediation or payment of the EPA's response costs.

         On July 6, 1994, the City and County of Denver, Waste Management of
         Colorado, Inc. and Chemical Waste Management, Inc. served Alumet and
         Southwire with a complaint alleging that Alumet, the Corporation,
         Southwire and NSC, as well as other parties, are liable for the cost
         of cleaning up the Lowry Landfill.  The complaint has not yet been
         served on the Corporation.  On August 15, 1994, Alumet answered the
         complaint, denying liability and raising a number of affirmative
         defenses and counter claims.  A Scheduling Order was entered on
         October 17, 1994 and discovery has commenced.

         During the time period relevant to Alumet's involvement at the Lowry
         Landfill, Alumet and its partners were insured under policies of
         insurance purchased by NSC.  Alumet has asserted claims against these
         policies, but to date no insurer has agreed to defend or indemnify
         Alumet or its partners against the Lowry Landfill claims.  On August
         9, 1994, Alumet commenced a lawsuit in Colorado, Alumet Partnership v.
         Continental Casualty Co., No. 94-CV-1728 (Colo. Dist. Ct., Arapahoe
         County), against three insurers seeking a declaratory judgment that
         Alumet is entitled to coverage for the Lowry Landfill claims and
         damages for breach of contract.

         Alumet received, on November 22, 1994, a Unilateral Administrative
         Order (the "Order") from the EPA directing each of the recipients of
         the Order to perform the remedial design and take remedial action at
         the Lowry Landfill Superfund Site.  The Corporation is one of many
         parties covered by the terms of the Order.  Alumet believes it has
         significant defenses to the Order and continues to evaluate those
         defenses with its counsel.  In addition, Alumet has been engaged in
         settlement discussions with representatives of the EPA concerning
         resolution of its alleged responsibility for remediation at the Lowry
         Landfill Site.  As a consequence of these discussions, Alumet's formal
         response to the Order has been suspended until February 10, 1995 and
         EPA counsel has advised that the response deadline will be extended
         further, perhaps as much as eight weeks.

         FoxMeyer Corporation

         FoxMeyer Drug Company ("FoxMeyer Drug"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
         FoxMeyer Corporation ("FoxMeyer"), is a defendant in several class 
         action suits originally filed in late 1993 by independent retail drug
         stores in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New
         York.  By order of the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation
         dated February 4, 1994, all related actions pending in various federal
         courts on the subject matter were consolidated and coordinated for
         pretrial purposes in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District
         of Illinois.  FoxMeyer Drug was not named as a defendant in any other
         of the pending actions. Thereafter, on or about March 9, 1994, a
         Consolidated and Amended Class Action Complaint titled In re Brand
         Name Prescription Drugs Antitrust Litigation (the "Amended Complaint")
         was filed consolidating all pending class actions, including those in
         which FoxMeyer Drug was a named defendant.  The Amended Complaint
         alleges, on behalf of a purported class of retail pharmacies, that the
         pharmaceutical manufacturers and drug wholesalers conspired to fix the
         prices of prescription drugs sold to retail drug stores.  Plaintiffs
         seek treble damages of an unspecified amount, injunctive relief and
         attorneys' fees.
        


                                      15
<PAGE>   17
         On April 26, 1994, all drug wholesalers named as defendants in the
         Amended Complaint moved for summary judgment.  On October 18, 1994,
         the Court denied the motion for summary judgment, permitting
         plaintiffs to go forward with discovery.  The wholesaler defendants,
         including FoxMeyer Drug, expect that they will renew their motion for
         summary judgment after discovery has been completed.  FoxMeyer Drug
         believes that it has meritorious defenses to the allegations asserted
         against it and is vigorously defending itself in this litigation.

         On or about July 29, 1994, an action was commenced by five Wisconsin
         retail pharmacies in the Circuit Court of Dane County, Wisconsin, in
         which FoxMeyer Drug was named as a defendant (K-S Pharmacies, Inc. et
         al. v. Abbott Laboratories, et al.).  This action, asserted on behalf
         of an alleged class of retail pharmacies, alleges violations of
         certain Wisconsin price discrimination, conspiracy and antitrust
         statutes in connection with the sale of prescription drugs in
         Wisconsin.  The complaint seeks injunctive relief and treble damages.
         On October 3, 1994, FoxMeyer Drug, as well as other defendants, filed
         a motion to stay this action, a motion to dismiss or, in the
         alternative, for a more definite statement.  The Court denied the
         motion to stay and reserved decision on the motion to dismiss.
         FoxMeyer Drug believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations
         asserted against it and is vigorously defending itself in this action.

         Effective on October 26, 1994, FoxMeyer Drug entered into a Judgment
         Sharing Agreement (the "Agreement") with the manufacturer defendants
         in these actions.  Under the terms of the Agreement, FoxMeyer Drug's
         liability for damages in any action (including the Wisconsin action)
         in which there is a judgment against a manufacturer and wholesaler
         will be limited to a maximum of $1 million.  In the event the
         manufacturer defendants settle, the Agreement provides that no
         contribution to such settlement would be required of FoxMeyer Drug.
         Also pursuant to the Agreement, FoxMeyer Drug, along with the other
         wholesalers who are defendants in the federal actions, will be
         entitled to reimbursement from the manufacturer defendants for its
         expenses of litigating these actions.  The manufacturers have agreed
         to reimburse up to an aggregate amount of $9 million in wholesaler
         expenses, to be allocated among the six wholesaler defendants in
         approximate accord with relative expenses actually incurred.  FoxMeyer
         Drug, in turn, released such antitrust claims as it might have had
         against any of the manufacturers based on the conduct alleged in the
         actions.

         In December, the Plaintiffs filed a motion to void the Agreement as
         illegal and against public policy.  FoxMeyer Drug and the other
         defendants believe the motion is without merit and have responded
         accordingly.  A decision is pending.

         FoxMeyer Health Corporation

         Shortly after the announcement of the initial offer with respect to
         the merger of National Intergroup, Inc. ("NII") and FoxMeyer (the 
         "Initial Offer"), class action lawsuits were filed against NII, 
         FoxMeyer and certain of FoxMeyer's officers and directors alleging, 
         among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary 
         duties owed to holders of shares of FoxMeyer common stock.

         The class action lawsuits, which have been consolidated, sought to
         enjoin the transaction contemplated by the Initial Offer or, if
         consummated, to rescind the transaction, and requested an award for
         money damages, attorneys' fees and costs.  In connection with the
         merger transaction as consummated on October 12, 1994 (the "Merger"),
         an agreement in principle between plaintiffs and the defendants
         concerning the terms of the Merger and the settlement of the class
         action lawsuits was reached and a Memorandum of Understanding was
         executed on June 30, 1994.  The Memorandum of Understanding provides,
         in substance, that, subject to confirmatory discovery, plaintiffs will
         enter into a settlement of the class action lawsuits, which settlement
         will be subject to conditions, including, among other things, entry of
         a judgment dismissing the class action lawsuits.  The Memorandum of
         Understanding also provides that defendants entered into such
         Memorandum of Understanding to, among other things, eliminate the
         burden and expense of future litigations.  The proposed settlement
         will provide for a complete discharge, settlement and release of, and
         an injunction barring, all claims, rights, causes of action, suits,
         matters and issues, whether known or unknown, that have been, could
         have been, or in the future might be asserted in the class action
         lawsuits or in any proceedings by or on behalf of the plaintiffs.  In
         connection with such settlement, the corporate defendants would pay
         the plaintiffs' counsel fees and expenses in an amount not to exceed
         $410,000, as may be  awarded by the Court to such counsel.  The
         defendants have answered the consolidated class action complaint,
         denying the material allegations therein, including allegations that
         any of them committed or have threatened to commit any violations of
         law or breaches of duty to the plaintiffs and asserting certain
         affirmative defenses.



                                      16
<PAGE>   18
         On September 20, 1994, counsel for plaintiffs in two of the class
         action lawsuits informed counsel for the defendants that those
         plaintiffs (the "Withdrawing Plaintiffs") were withdrawing from the
         Memorandum of Understanding and would seek to oppose any settlement of
         the class action lawsuits on the terms set forth in the Memorandum of
         Understanding.  Plaintiffs in all of other actions (the"Non-
         Withdrawing Plaintiffs") continued to engage in discovery pursuant to
         the Memorandum of Understanding.

         On September 30, 1994, the Withdrawing Plaintiffs filed a motion for a
         preliminary injunction seeking to enjoin the consummation of the
         Merger and sought to schedule a date for a preliminary injunction
         hearing.  That same day, the Court denied the request to schedule a
         preliminary injunction hearing.

         On October 11, 1994, the State of Wisconsin Investment Board ("SWIB"),
         alleging that it was a shareholder of FoxMeyer, moved to intervene in
         the consolidated class action lawsuits, seeking to file a complaint in
         intervention challenging the Merger and defendants' conduct in
         connection therewith.

         On December 2, 1994, SWIB withdrew its motion to intervene in the
         consolidated class action lawsuits and filed a complaint entitled
         State of Wisconsin Investment Board v. FoxMeyer Health Corp., et. al.,
         in the Delaware Chancery Court in and for New Castle County against
         the same persons named as defendants in the consolidated class action
         lawsuits.  The SWIB complaint alleges that the defendants breached
         their fiduciary duties to FoxMeyer's shareholders by agreeing to the
         Merger at an unfair price and at a time designed so that NII could
         take advantage of, among other things, an alleged substantial growth
         in the business of FoxMeyer.  The SWIB complaint also alleges that the
         proxy statement issued in connection with the Merger failed to
         disclose (i) that the FoxMeyer Special Committee never examined the
         basis for FoxMeyer's projections or took into account in reviewing
         those projections certain increases in business expected by FoxMeyer,
         (ii) that certain analyses used by Smith Barney in rendering its
         fairness opinion on the Merger were flawed, and (iii) that FoxMeyer's
         actual performance was substantially exceeding projections at the time
         of the issuance of the proxy statement.  Defendants have filed a
         motion to stay the SWIB action, which motion is currently pending.
         Defendants intend to contest the allegations in the SWIB complaint.

         Pursuant to the Memorandum of Understanding, the parties have engaged
         in and have substantially completed confirmatory discovery.  To date,
         no settlement agreement has been entered into.  In the event a
         settlement agreement is entered into, it is expected that stockholders
         of FoxMeyer separately will be provided a notice containing future
         information regarding the proposed settlement and related proceedings,
         including a settlement hearing to be scheduled by the court.  In the
         event a settlement agreement is not entered into, defendants intend to
         vigorously defend both the consolidated class action lawsuits and the
         action brought by SWIB.

                           THIRD AMENDMENT AGREEMENT

         This Third Amendment Agreement (this Amendment") is made and entered
into as of October 12, 1994, by and among FOXMEYER HEALTH CORPORATION (f/k/a
National Intergroup, Inc.) ("Borrower"), a Delaware corporation, the Banks
identified on the signature pages hereof ("Banks") and BANQUE PARIBAS, a bank
organized under the laws of the Republic of France, as Agent for Banks
("Agent").

         A.      Pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement dated as of January
13, 1994, by and among Borrower, Banks and Agent, as amended by that certain
First Amendment to Loan Agreement dated as of January 13, 1994, as further
amended by that certain Second Amendment to Loan Agreement dated as of
September 6, 1994 (as the same may be amended, renewed, extended, restated or
otherwise modified from time to time, the "Agreement"), Banks agreed to provide
to Borrower a revolving credit and letter of credit facility in the maximum
aggregate principal amount of $15,000,000.

         B.      The indebtedness of Borrower to the Banks pursuant to the
Agreement is evidenced by (i) a Promissory Note dated February 22, 1994, in the
maximum original principal amount of $10,000,000 made by Borrower and payable
to the order of Banque Paribas, and (ii) a Promissory Note dated February 22,
1994, in the maximum original principal amount of $5,000,000 made by Borrower
and payable to the order of Credit Lyonnais New York Branch (as amended,
renewed, extended, restated, replaced or supplemented from time to time,
whether by one or more other promissory notes or otherwise and whether payable
to the Banks identified above or their successors or assigns, the "Notes").

         C.      The Obligations (as such term is defined in the Agreement) are
secured by security interests evidenced and created by that certain Amended and
Restated Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of October 12, 1994, by and
between Borrower and Agent (as the same may be amended, renewed, extended,
restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Security Agreement")
presently covering, in part, 4,000,000 shares of common stock of FoxMeyer
Corporation owned by Borrower.

         D.      Borrower has, concurrently with the effective date of this
Amendment, changed its name from "National Intergroup, Inc." to "FoxMeyer
Health Corporation."

         E.      Borrower, Agent and Banks desire to amend the Agreement, the
Notes, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents to reflect such name
change.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and
agreements contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
hereby agree as follows:

         1.      Terms Defined.  Unless otherwise defined in this Amendment,
each capitalized term used in this Amendment has the meaning given to such term
in the Agreement (as amended by this Amendment).
<PAGE>   2



         2.      Amendments to the Loan Documents relating to Name Change.
Effective as of the date hereof, the Agreement, the Notes, the Security
Agreement and the other Loan Documents are amended such that the term "National
Intergroup, Inc.", wherever such word appears in the Loan Documents, shall
instead mean and refer to the term "FoxMeyer Health Corporation".  Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, effective as of the date hereof, the
definition of the term "Borrower" contained in Section 1.1 of the Agreement is
amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

         "`Borrower' means FoxMeyer Health Corporation, a Delaware corporation."

         3.      Effect of this Amendment.  The Loan Documents, as amended by
this Amendment, shall remain in full force and effect except that any reference
therein to any Loan Document(s) shall be deemed to refer to such Loan
Document(s) as amended by this Amendment.

         4.      Conditions Precedent.  The effectiveness of this Amendment is
subject to each of the following conditions precedent:

                 4.1      Agent's receipt of a certified copy of the
         resolutions of the Board of Directors of Borrower authorizing this
         Amendment and the change of the Borrower's name to FoxMeyer Health
         Corporation.

                 4.2      Borrower's execution and/or delivery of (i)
         additional financing statements as Agent may request, each in form and
         substance satisfactory to Agent and Banks, and (ii) any and all other
         agreements, documents and instruments as Agent or Banks may request
         relating to the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations.

                 4.3      Agent's receipt of Lien searches in the name of
         FoxMeyer Health Corporation in each jurisdiction where Borrower
         maintains an office or has Assets, showing no financing statements or
         other Lien instruments of record except for Permitted Liens.

                 4.4      Agent's receipt of evidence satisfactory to Agent
         confirming the effectiveness of the change of Borrower's name to
         FoxMeyer Health Corporation.

         5.      Representations and Warranties.  Borrower hereby represents
and warrants to Agent and Banks that, as of the date of and after giving effect
to this Amendment, (a) all representations and warranties set forth in Article
V of the Agreement and in Article III of the Security Agreement are true and
correct as if made again on and as of such date (except to the extent that such
representations and warranties were expressly, in the Agreement, made only in
reference to a specific date), (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, and (c) the Agreement, the Notes, the Security Agreement and
the other Loan Documents (as amended by this Amendment) are and remain legal,
valid, binding and enforceable obligations of Borrower.

         6.      GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AMENDMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
TEXAS AND APPLICABLE U.S. FEDERAL LAWS.

         7.      Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts, all of which when taken together shall constitute one agreement,
and any of the parties hereto may execute this Amendment by signing any such
counterpart.

         8.      NO ORAL AGREEMENTS.  THIS AMENDMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE
AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AS WRITTEN, REPRESENT THE FINAL
AGREEMENTS BETWEEN AND AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY

provided herein, all terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain
unchanged and in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.
No waiver by Agent or any Bank of any Default or Event of Default shall be
deemed to be a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default.  No delay or
omission by Agent or any Bank in exercising any power, right or remedy shall
impair such power, right or remedy or be construed as a waiver thereof or an
acquiescence therein, and no single or partial exercise of any such power,
right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other power, right or remedy under the Agreement, the Loan
Documents or otherwise.

         10.     Payment of Costs, Fees and Expenses.  Borrower shall promptly
pay any and all costs, fees and expenses paid or incurred by Agent incident to

                       FOURTH AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT

         This FOURTH AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT (this "Amendment") is made and

(f/k/a National Intergroup, Inc.) ("Borrower"), a Delaware corporation, the
Banks identified on the signature pages hereof ("Banks") and BANQUE PARIBAS, a

(i) First Amendment to Loan Agreement dated as of January 13, 1994, (ii) Second

                 fixed rate or rates of interest specified by such Lender in
                 its sole discretion (but in no event at a rate in excess of
                 the Maximum Lawful Rate), by notifying Administrative Agent
                 (which shall give prompt notice thereof to Borrower), before
                 10:00 A.M. (New York, New York time) on the date of such

                 subject to the proviso to the first sentence of Section
                 2.2(a), exceed such Lender's Commitment) and the rate or rates
                 of interest therefor; provided that if Administrative Agent in
                 its capacity as a Lender shall, in its sole discretion, elect

                 before 9:30 A.M. (New York, New York time) on the date on

                 shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any B Advance
                 as part of such B Borrowing; provided that the failure by any
                 Lender to give such notice shall not cause such Lender to be
                 obligated to make any B Advance as part of such proposed B
                 Borrowing.

                          than the minimum amount, and equal to or less than
                          the maximum amount, notified to Borr ower by

                 above, Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify (A)

                          maturity date accepted for) each B Advance (which
                          amount shall be equal to or greater than the minimum

                          (v)     If Borrower accepts one or more of the offers
                 made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y)
                 above, Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify each

                 as to whether such B Borrowing conforms to the requirements of
                 Section 2.2(a).  Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions
                 set forth in Article IV, each Lender that is to make a B
                 Advance as part of such B Borrowing shall, before 1:00 P.M.
                 (New York, New York time) on the date of such B Borrowing
                 (provided such Lender shall have received any required B Note
                 and a favorable notice from Administrative Agent pursuant to
                 the preceding sentence), make available to Borrower such
                 Lender's portion of such B Borrowing, in same day funds, by
                 credit to such bank account as Borrower may designate.
                 Promptly after each B Borrowing, Administrative Agent will
                 notify each Lender of the amount of the B Borrowing, the
                 consequent B Reduction and the dates upon which such B
                 Reduction commenced and will terminate.

                     (d)  Money Market Auction.

                 Section 2.2(d) by telephone notice to Lenders and
                 Administrative Agent, referring to this Section 2.2(d) and
                 specifying the aggregate amount of the proposed B Borrowing
                 and the maturity date for repayment of the B Advance to be
                 made as part of such B Borrowing (which maturity date shall be
                 a date occurring not less than one nor more than four days
                 after the date of such B Borrowing), not later than 12:00 noon
                 (New York, New York time) on the date of the proposed B
                 Borrowing.  Borrower shall not notify a Lender of such
                 proposed B Borrowing if Borrower and Administrative Agent
                 shall have received notice from such Lender that it elects not
                 to be so notified.

                          (ii)    Each Lender so notified may, if, in its sole
                 discretion, it elects to do so, irrevocably offer to make one
                 or more B Advances to Borrower as part of such proposed B
                 Borrowing at a fixed rate of interest specified by such Lender
                 in its sole discretion (but in no event at a rate in excess of
                 the Maximum Lawful Rate), by telephone notice to Borrower
                 (which shall give prompt telephone notice thereof to
                 Administrative Agent), before 12:30 P.M. (New York, New York
                 time) on the date of such proposed B Borrowing, of the minimum
                 amount and

                 maximum amount of each B Advance which such Lender would be
                 willing to make as part of such proposed B Borrowing (which
                 amounts may, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of
                 Section 2.2(a), exceed such Lender's Commitment) and the rate
                 of interest therefor.  If any Lender so notified shall elect
                 not to make such an offer, such Lender shall so notify
                 Borrower by telephone, before 12:30 P.M. (New York, New York
                 time) on such date, and such Lender shall not be obligated to,
                 and shall not, make any B Advance as part of such B Borrowing;
                 provided that the failure by any Lender to give such notice
                 shall not cause such Lender to be obligated to make any B
                 Advance as part of such proposed B Borrowing.

                          (iii)   Borrower shall, in turn, before 1:00 P.M.
                 (New York, New York time) on the date of such proposed B
                 Borrowing, either:

                                  (x)      cancel such B Borrowing by giving
                          the Lenders so notified and Administrative Agent
                          notice to that effect, or

                                  (y)      accept one or more of the offers
                          made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph
                          (ii) above, in its sole discretion, by giving notice
                          (which may be by telephone, confirmed immediately by
                          telecopier or telefax and in writing) to such Lender
                          or Lenders and Administrative Agent of the maturity
                          date specified pursuant to paragraph (i) above and
                          the amount of each B Advance (which amount shall be
                          equal to or greater than the minimum amount, and
                          equal to or less than the maximum amount, notified to
                          Borrower by such Lender or Lenders for such B Advance
                          pursuant to paragraph (ii) above) to be made by each
                          Lender as part of such B Borrowing, and reject any

                          paragraph (ii) above by giving the Lenders so
                          notified and Administrative Agent notice to that
                          effect.

                          (iv)    If Borrower notifies the Lenders so notified
                 and Administrative Agent that such B Borrowing is canceled
                 pursuant to paragraph (iii)(x) above, such B Borrowing shall
                 not be made.

                          (v)     If Borrower accepts one or more of the offers
                 made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to paragraph (iii)(y)
                 above, Borrower shall be deemed to have provided such Lender
                 or Lenders with the

                 certifications set forth in paragraphs (c) through (g) of the
                 form of B Borrowing Notice as of the date of the B Borrowing,
                 and Administrative Agent shall in turn promptly notify each
                 Lender that is to make a B Advance as part of such B Borrowing
                 as to whether such B Borrowing conforms to the requirements of
                 Section 2.2(a).  Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions
                 set forth in Article IV, each Lender that is to make a B
                 Advance as part of such B Borrowing shall, before 3:00 P.M.
                 (New York, New York time) on the date of such B Borrowing
                 (provided such Lender shall have received the confirmation by
                 telecopy or telefax required by paragraph (iii)(y) above, any
                 required B Note and a favorable notice from Administrative
                 Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence), make available to
                 Borrower such Lender's portion of such B Borrowing, in same
                 day funds, by credit to such bank account as Borrower may
                 designate.  Promptly after each B Borrowing, Administrative
                 Agent will notify each Lender of the amount of the B
                 Borrowing, the consequent B Reduction and the dates upon which
                 such B Reduction commenced and will terminate.

         amount not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in
         excess thereof and, following the making of such B Borrowing, Borrower
         shall be in compliance with the limitation set forth in the proviso to
         the first sentence of subsection (a) above.

                 (f)      Availability.  Within the limits and on the

         time borrow under this Section 2.2, repay or prepay pursuant to
         subsection (g) below, and reborrow under this Section 2.2; provided
         that not more than ten B Borrowings may be outstanding at any time
         (for which purpose B Advances made on the same date, but having
         different maturities, shall be deemed to be separate B Borrowings).

                 (g)      B Notes; Other Evidence of B Borrowings.  Unless a
         Lender provides Borrower and Administrative Agent with notice to the
         contrary, each B Advance by such Lender shall be evidenced by a
         promissory note executed by Borrower and payable to the order of such
         Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto (as amended,
         renewed, extended, restated, replaced, substituted, supplemented or
         otherwise modified from time to time, individually, a "B Note" and

         Note shall be evidenced by an account maintained by the Lender

         shall include the date of the B Advance, the maturity date of the B
         Advance and the amount of principal and interest payable and paid to
         such Lender from time to time in respect of such B Advance.  In
         addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain a control account,
         with subsidiary accounts for each Lender (the "B Borrowing Account"),
         which shall also evidence the B Advances, in which the dates, amounts
         and maturities of the B Advances, the interest rates payable in
         respect of the B Advances and sums received in respect of the B
         Advances shall be recorded; and, except in the case of B Advances
         evidenced by B Notes, the entries made in the B Borrowing Account
         shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error.
         Borrower shall repay to Administrative Agent for the account of each
         Lender which has made a B Advance (or its assignee pursuant to Section
         9.6(g)), or each other holder of a B Note, on the maturity date of
         each B Advance (such maturity date being that specified by Borrower
         for repayment of such B Advance in the related B Borrowing Notice or
         acceptance delivered pursuant to subsection (b)(i), (c)(i) (or
         (c)(iii) where a Lender specifies a maturity pursuant to subsection
         (c)(ii) above that is accepted by Borrower) or (d)(iii) above and
         provided in the B Note or the B Borrowing Account evidencing such B
         Advance), the then unpaid amount of such B Advance.  Borrower shall
         have no right to prepay any principal amount of any B Advance unless,
         and then only on the terms specified by Borrower for such B Advance in
         the related B Borrowing Notice delivered pursuant to subsection (b)(i)
         or (c)(i) above.

                 (h)      Interest.  Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid
         principal amount of each B Advance from the date of such B Advance to
         the date the principal amount of such B Advance is repaid in full, at
         the rate of interest for such B Advance specified by Lender making
         such B Advance in its notice with respect thereto delivered pursuant
         to subsection (b)(ii), (c)(ii) or d(ii) above, in all cases subject to
         Section 2.7(d), payable on the interest payment date or dates
         specified by Borrower for such B Advance in the related B Borrowing
         Notice delivered pursuant to subsection (b)(i) or (c)(i) above, as
         provided in the B Note or the B Borrowing Account evidencing such B
         Advance, or on the maturity date of such B Advance in the case of B
         Advances pursuant to subsection (d) above.

Tokyo, Ltd., Dallas Agency, made loans to Borrower under the Credit Agreement,
dated as of August 30, 1993, as amended, among Borrower, the Operating
Subsidiaries, various financial institutions and Bank of America Illinois, as

proceeds of simultaneous A Advances under Section 2.1 of the Loan Agreement on
the Fourth Amendment Date and such facility shall be terminated on such date.

         (d)     The Lenders made A Advances to Borrower under the Loan
Agreement and, as of the date of this Fourth Amendment, $39,300,000 aggregate
principal amount of A Advances is outstanding.  Effective on the Fourth
Amendment Date, Borrower shall prepay all A Advances and B Advances then
outstanding pursuant to Section 2.6(a) of the Loan Agreement from the proceeds
of simultaneous A Advances pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of the Loan

hereby waive the requirement in Section 2.6(a)(i) of the Loan Agreement solely
with respect to such prepayment.  Certain of the Lenders made B Advances to
Borrower under the Loan Agreement and, as of the date of this Fourth Amendment,

B Advances shall remain outstanding on the Fourth Amendment Date, subject to
the terms thereof.  NationsBank and Paribas have issued Letters of Credit that

$8,007,240 and, as of the date of this Fourth Amendment, no amounts have been
drawn thereunder.  At all times before the Fourth Amendment Date, the Lenders
(other than The Fuji Bank, Ltd. and The Bank of Tokyo, Ltd., Dallas Agency)
shall fund all A Advances and participate in all Letters of Credit under the
Loan Agreement, and be entitled to all interest, fees and other amounts payable
in respect thereof, as provided in the Loan Agreement prior to the
effectiveness of the amendments effected by this Fourth Amendment.  On the
Fourth Amendment Date, before giving effect to the amendments effected by the
Fourth Amendment, the Borrower shall pay all interest, fees and other amounts
accrued and unpaid under the Loan Agreement as of such date.  From and after
the Fourth Amendment Date, the Lenders shall fund all A Advances and
participate in all Letters of Credit under the Loan Agreement, and be entitled
to all interest, fees and other amounts payable in respect thereof, in
accordance with their Pro Rata Shares of the Aggregate Commitment (after giving
effect to the amendments effected by this Fourth Amendment).

                 determined not to be a Liquidation Day, such amounts shall be
                 applied pursuant to the first sentence of Section 2.05 on the
                 day of such subsequent determination.  Upon the Agent's or the

                 applicable, to distribute funds in payment in full of the
                 aforementioned amounts, the Agent or Co-Agent, as applicable,

                 not made to the Agent or Co-Agent, as applicable, when due
                 hereunder, to charge from time to time against any or all of

                          (c)     The Seller shall, to the extent permitted by
                 law, pay to the Agent or Co-Agent, as applicable, interest on
                 all amounts not paid or deposited when due hereunder (whether
                 as Collection Agent or otherwise) at 2% per annum above the
                 Alternate Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable on
                 demand, provided, however, that such interest rate shall not
                 at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable
                 law.  Such interest shall be for the account of, and
                 distributed by the Agent or Co-Agent, as applicable, to, the
                 Owners or other Indemnified Parties to which such amounts are
                 owed.

                          (d)     All computations of interest and all
                 computations of Yield, Liquidation Yield and fees hereunder

                                   AMENDMENT
                                     TO THE
                  1993 STOCK OPTION AND PERFORMANCE AWARD PLAN
                                       OF
                           NATIONAL INTERGROUP, INC.


                 Amendment, dated October 12, 1994, to the 1993 Stock Option
and Performance Award Plan (the "Plan") of National Intergroup, Inc. (the
"Company").  Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have
the meanings ascribed thereto in the Plan.

                 WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company believes that
the aggregate number of shares of the Company's common stock, par value $5 per
share, available for the granting of options under the Plan should be increased
in order to continue to give the Board of Directors flexibility in compensating
directors, officers and key employees of the Company;

                 NOW, THEREFORE, subject to the approval of the stockholders of
the Company as set forth in Section 2 hereof, the Plan is hereby amended as
follows:

         1.      The first sentence of Section 3 of the Plan is hereby amended
                 to read in its entirety as follows:

                 "Subject to adjustments provided in Section 11, the maximum
         aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Company which may be
         granted for all purposes under the Plan shall be 4,000,000 shares."

         2.      Section 4 of the Plan is hereby amended to read in its
                 entirety as follows:

                 Grants under the Plan (i) may be made, pursuant to Sections 6,
         8 and 9, to key employees, officers and directors (but not to any
         director who is not an employee) of the Company, or any subsidiary
         corporation thereof, who are regularly employed on a salaried basis
         and who so employed on the date of such grant (the "Officer and Key
         Employee Participants"), (ii) shall be made, subject to and in
         accordance with Section 7, to individuals not regularly employed by
         the Company who serve as directors of the Company (the "Outside
         Director Participants"), and (iii) shall be made to individuals not
         regularly employed by NII who serve as directors of any subsidiary
         corporation of the Corporation, at the discretion of the Committee
         administering the Plan.

         3.      This Amendment shall become effective on the date first
approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of
common stock of the Company voting at a meeting of the Company's stockholders.

                 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company hereby executes this Amendment
on the date first above written.
